Little House Read Along 2016. Saturday, April 25, 2015. Failed my first Spin - Emma by Jane Austen. OK I give up. I announce it officially. I cannot stand Emma! I have not been able to get past Chapter 10. There is NO way I will be able to finish this book. I will NEVER ever touch this book to read again. I don't know how ANYONE can read this novel. Emma does nothing but whine and gossip and stick her nose into other peoples business all day, every day. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Tell Me a Story.

This is a Dystopia novel - a novel of an alternative future that runs counter to our present. It is set post 1990. On his daily walks between his home and the...

Little House Read Along 2016. Friday, June 5, 2015. First Published - 1921. One of the best Australian book series I remember reading as a child was the Billabong series. These days Billabong is the name of a well known clothes line. But back in the 1970s or early 1980s, it was the name of a series of books written by Mary Grant Bruce. There were a total of 15 books in the series, starting from when Norah was 11 years old, and going through her teenage years, to the years spent in England during World Wa...

The race was on between Scotland Yard, the London Police and Sherlock Homes as to who would solve the case first. There ...

Little House Read Along 2016. Saturday, May 9, 2015. Secret Water by Arthur Ransome. First Published - 1939. Warning - this is a LOOOONG post!

All I know is that for most of my life that I remember (and I remember very little before my 8th birthday) I have loved many many other books, TV series and movies set on or under the sea....
